Reviews and Ratings

Reviews
(1-25 of 73)Companies can't remove reviews or game the system. Here's why
- Stopping malicious activity.
- Provides great visibility into events.
- Works as an extension of our IT team.
- In dashboard filtering for all records, without needing to export.
- AI / ML based malicious activity detections
- Detection information presented clearly and concisely on dashboard
- Easy filtering of detections on hostname, detection name, severity, date, time, hash, technique etc
- traces full process chain instead of just showing the source file or script which really helps in tracing the main security concern of machine
- If some malicious app uses microsoft's signed binary like onedrive, cmd, wscript CrowdStrike would tag the microsoft binary as malicious and fails to provide the actual file that tried to execute these.
- For example if a
- malware.exe tries to run this command
- cmd /c bitsadmin
- CrowdStrike would tag cmd or bitsadmin as malicious and does not mention malware.exe at all sometimes
- There are two different dashboards (updated and deprecated) which causes confusion among my team, all must be on same page and use single dashboard.
- Support is very slow in responding to problems and depend on automated bots which really frustrates when a major issue arises.
